So today is my day for surgery!!! Gosh it feels like I have waited years your this. My surgery is in 4 hours!!!!! I'm nervous, scared, having self doubt, and happy. I don't know if I should go under the knife or be on a psych chair lol. I have all kinds of feeling. So far I have only told my boyfriend and my sister that I am having this procedure. I am not sure how I will explain my weight loss to my coworkers. I chose not to share because they are very judgmental. And I am also private to. Anyways I am getting up to take my shower. Just wanted to let you all know that I AM SCARED AS HELL!!!! Sent from my LM-X420 using BariatricPal mobile app

Thanks to everyone for their kind words. So I am out of surgery and I am feeling ok. Definitely needed meds right out of surgery. I was in so much pain.But I am tolerating the pain much better at the moment. I have walked 3 times today. Two lapse each time. The first time I felt dizzy and nausea so I had to stop and settle myself. The next two times I was fine and went walking by myself. I think I am at a DIY hospital...lol. They haven't asked if I needed assistance or anything. But thats ok I got it done. My dinner was some kind of broth that I could only take a few sips of. They also gave me lemonade packets to go in my water. When I drink it feels like a ton is dropping in my stomach. But I am still trying to drink as much as I can. Oh and I keep belchingng out of nowhere. I mean belching like I have eaten a full course meal. Once again. Thanks everyone for the support. Sent from my LM-X420 using BariatricPal mobile app
